No. Not whatever. We don't deal that way here. Here, we post facts. Bullwang people like you and The Rusty Trombone attempt to support poor points by throwing out statements that clearly aren't true. You want to be known as hockey's verion of The Rusty Trombone? Right now, you are.

Bruino talkung about seg. U know that player who has given dallas playoff hope let alone their best record inyears.to say he was a bruin

Two years ago, the Stars won 42 games. 42-29-11

Right now, they have 38 wins with four games left. 38-29-11

If they win them all, they'll have equaled their season two years ago.

Give it the F up, you Rusty Trombone Clone.

who do you think will win more playoff games over the course of the next 5 years? seguin in dallas, or eriksson and smith in boston? my guess is that smith and eriksson will win more this season than seguin will in dallas over the duration of his contract.

having said that i think the trade was good for dallas. there is such a thing as a win win.

Good times only regarding the way the playoffs play out. Reg. Season no one remembers

Of course you would say that, with Boston sitting #1 overall. If the Bruins had struggled through a mediocre season, I guarantee you would not have said, no one remembers the regular season.

I have a hard time believing you are really a Bruin fan. I get the distinct impression, you will be thrilled if they go out in the first round, and you can come on this board, and gloat how they missed Seguin.

It's too bad you can't seem to care about current Bruin players, more than a couple of ex-ones.

No parades for a President's Trophy, but the reward should be a good, deep run in the playoffs. A 1st or even 2nd round exit may not justify all the moves PC made.

There's no reason to think that the way this team is playing that a deep run won't happen. If the mental focus is there, they CAN burn through the whole East (although a healthy Detroit us the "unknown").

Oh, and Rask? Well, he's gotta be THE man.

In reality, it does. 82 games really is the litmus test. The playoffs are a contrived promotion we all buy into. Your final line really drives that home. If Rask hits a 7 game slump, nothing else will matter, the B's go down. Nagging injuries to a couple core players, same thing. If the Bruins hit a few well timed posts, and their opposition banks a few in off someones skate....see ya. There are many scenario's intelligent hockey people look at. If not, every decision can be made correctly off a stat sheet.

Yes, the score dictates the winner, and the spoils go to the winner, but if theres nothing between hero and zero, studying the game is obviously a waste of time.
